This book review of Katherine L’Etang’s memoir criticizes it for presenting autism through a privileged, individualized lens rather than examining systemic ableism and intersectionality. It highlights her expensive private diagnosis, ability to leave employment, and reliance on paid services, arguing these solutions are inaccessible to most autistic people. The reviewer finds her treatment of high-support-needs autistics performative and class-insensitive.
